Chapter 1012 Families Gather(2/3)

Kou Ji helped him up, wrote a long letter, and handed it to him.

After the retainer received the long letter, he did not stay in Qingdu any longer. He processed the goods he had brought from Xiyang and left by boat.

It is not easy to travel from Xiyang to Qingguo.

No matter what you do, you have to bring some goods back and forth.

The Qing Dynasty is currently undergoing major construction and there is not enough goods, so the customers need to go down the coast to Dengzhoucai in the Song Dynasty to buy a batch of goods, and then return to Xiyang. If they encounter the warships of the Zhendong Army at sea,

, and they can also support each other.

After Kou Ji sent away the people from Xiyang, he met Di Qing again in Wenchang Academy.

In just a few months, Di Qing had completely cleared away the savages on his land.

A group of those who resisted were killed, and a large group of obedient ones were left behind to carry out infrastructure construction on the fiefdom.

Most of the Di Qing fiefdom is populated by nomadic peoples and some savages in the mountains and forests.

They almost always live in tents and have no fixed place.

Therefore, Di Qing's fiefdom can be said to be still in a relatively primitive state.

Kou Ji combined the actual situation in Di Qing's fiefdom and designed a plan for Di Qing to manage the fiefdom.

The first is to build a city.

With a city, local people have a gathering place and can develop.

There are not many people in Di Qing's fiefdom, so it is impossible to build too many cities.

Kou Ji's suggestion to Di Qing was to build a city with thirty-six forts.

Kou Ji suggested that Di Qing build a complete city in the middle of the fiefdom, and then set up thirty-six ring fortresses on the edges of the fiefdom.

The fortress was used to garrison troops and residents, and was also considered the prototype of a city.

When the number of people in Di Qing's fiefdom gradually increases, the thirty-six ring fortresses can be turned into cities.

Anyway, the Song Dynasty didn't bother to care about foreign lands.

Di Qing could take as much as he wanted.

Even if Di Qing expanded the three hundred miles of land under his control to the north and west for thousands of miles, no one would care about it.

Therefore, Di Qing can build a city on the fiefdom as he likes.

The first thing Di Qing needs to do now is to build the fief's first city and a dock near the sea.

Kou Ji invited some construction masters to discuss it together and formulated a city construction plan for Di Qing that would save money and manpower.

Kou Ji also allocated a group of ships and craftsmen to Di Qing.

Di Qing did not refuse and accepted them all.

It's not that Di Qing is thick-skinned, it's that Di Qing feels that he and Kou Ji are one and the same.

He is not good at running a place and only knows how to fight.

Therefore, he took over all the wars between the Qing Kingdom and the Beihai County Prince's fiefdom, and left all the management to Kou Ji.

Di Qing didn't care about those things in terms of status, nor did he care about the Qing Kingdom and the Beihai County Prince's fiefdom being mixed together.

Di Qing once mentioned to Kou Ji that he was willing to annex the Beihai County Prince's fiefdom to the Qing Kingdom, but Kou Ji refused.

So Di Qing could only bite the bullet and manage the fiefdom by himself.

If this matter were told, others might think Di Qing was stupid.

But in the eyes of a true wise man, Di Qing's move was very smart.

Di Qing himself was not good at running a place, so he decisively gave up his place and let others run it.

This is a wise choice.

If you don't know how to run a fiefdom and run it by yourself, you will only make things worse.

Maybe it will make the people under its rule miserable and eventually fall apart.

Therefore, it is definitely a very wise choice to hand over the management of the fiefdom to Kou Ji.

As for whether Kou Ji would be greedy for his own fiefdom, Di Qing was not worried at all.

Di Qing didn't care about his fiefdom at all.

After Kou Ji finished planning the construction of the fiefdom for Di Qing, Di Qing once again took the people by boat and rushed to his fiefdom.

This time, the number of people Di Qing brought with him was considerable.

After Di Qing left.

Together, Kou Ji met with the Liuqiu Cao family, the Cao family in Eastern Tianzhu, the Zhang family in Western Tianzhu, the envoys from the Black Khanate, the envoys from Dongyang, and the envoys from the two vassal kings of the Song Dynasty who occupied most of the territory further west.

The person sent by Liuqiu Cao family was Cao Yi from Cao family.

The person sent by the Cao family in Eastern Tianzhu was a man whom Kou Ji didn't know. He was another grandson of Cao Lili, his name was Cao Zhan.

The Zhang family in Western Tianzhu sent Zhang Bao, Zhang Yuan’s son.

The envoy of the Black Khanate is still Gargamel's confidant Hatuk.

The Li family sent Li Chun, Li Zhaoliang’s son.

The person sent by the Zhu family was Zhu Neng's son Zhu Fu.

The person sent by the Dongyang Zhong family was Zhong Shiheng’s second son, Zhong Shi.

Several people, old and young, were brought together by Kou Ji into a reception hall in Wenchang Academy.

Kou Ji invited everyone to sit down and ordered tea to be served.

After nodding to Cao Yi and others, he smiled and said: "I just took a look, the gifts you all brought are not light. I deserve it."

Cao Yi said with a smile: "Fourth brother is joking. It's all because of fourth brother's plan that our family can break the earth and become kings. Without fourth brother, we wouldn't be what we are today."

In the past, when Fourth Brother was in the Song Dynasty, we couldn't give each other generous gifts for fear of being gossiped about.

Now that Fourth Brother has left the Song Dynasty, we naturally don’t need to worry."

Kou Ji laughed and said: "The scene you have created is not small, it is comparable to when you entered Bianjing City to meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty."

When Cao Ji and others heard Kou Ji's name, they were slightly stunned. They made eye contact, and then looked at Kou Ji with smiles.

Kou Ji pretended not to see them communicating with their eyes. He stared at Cao Yi and said, "Liuqiu is developing well. I heard that you bought many women from East Tianzhu and West Tianzhu and shipped them to Liuqiu.

The common people are matched with officials.

Now the population of Liuqiu has reached 150,000."

Hearing this, Cao Yi said with emotion: "Although I have 150,000 people in Liuqiu, more than 90,000 of them are childish and naughty children. I'm afraid it will take more than ten years for them to grow up.

Now I only have 60,000 people I can use.

Among them, there are only ten thousand soldiers and horses capable of fighting."

Kou Ji smiled and said: "The soldiers and horses that can be evaluated by your Cao family as capable of fighting must be strong soldiers. Ten thousand strong soldiers is already a lot. It is more than enough to guard Liuqiu."

Cao Yi said bluntly: "There are too few people and the land is too small..."

Kou Ji raised his eyebrows, pointed at Cao Yi, shook his head and smiled.

Cao Yi smiled and said nothing.

Kou Ji looked at the breeder and asked with a smile: "How is the breeder?"

He was younger than Kou Ji. Hearing Kou Ji's words, he said implicitly: "My father can eat and sleep, and he can also lift the biggest stone lock on the school field."

Kou Ji nodded and said with a smile: "So, does it mean that old age makes you stronger?"

Zhongxian cupped his fists and said, "Uncle Lao is worried about me."

Kou Ji waved his hand, "I heard that after your family arrived in Dongyang, they recruited many Japanese people?"

Seed Clinic did not hide anything and said bluntly: "My father incorporated some Japanese people from Dongyang into the army and established a servant army. But my father has never forgotten that if he is not of my race, his heart will be different. So my father used Japanese people, but

Do not reuse Japanese people.

In addition, my father is also following the methods of Xiyang and gradually eliminating the Japanese.

It's just that my father's methods were not as brutal as King Xiyang's, so the results were a bit slow.

My father once said that war is the most convenient way to control population, and as long as we fight a few battles, everything will be solved."

Kou Ji nodded with a smile and looked at Cao Zhan from the Cao family in East Tianzhu.

"Is it good to use it for public use?"

Yongzhi is the word used by Cao Lili.

Cao Lili is now regarded as the leader of a country. Kou Ji cannot call him by his first name in front of his descendants, so he calls him by his first name.

Cao Zhan cupped his hands and said, "My grandfather has been suffering from a serious illness recently and is resting on his bed."

When Kou Ji heard this, he sighed with emotion: "I have fought hard all my life and made great achievements. I should enjoy my old age in peace."
